Jan 26

Progress this week on framing, plumbing, and the wall. Click on photos for a larger view.

Work continues on the chimney framing. Should be another day or two.

The lower retaining wall is completely done now.

Norris checks out the completed roof for the screened-in porch. The white band you see just below the roof is the trim the siding people were installing. We need to get the roof trim done before the shingles can go on.


This photo shows part of the great room. The area to the left is the dining room, and the kitchen is to the right. The pipes sticking up to the left of the sawhorses is for the kitchen island. In the corner to the right of the sawhorses you can see plumbing for the corner sink. All the plumbing is roughed-in now. You can also see the horizontal beams in the ceiling area, which are properly called collar-ties.


All the windows have been installed now, except for the custom windows for the upper living room and master bedroom areas. Here you can see plastic is temporarily used to keep the weather out of the living room until the windows can be installed, which might happen next week.
